The One with First Comes Love, Then Comes Marriage, Then Comes...

Friday, April 2, 2010

Until October 15th, whenever I go home to Washington and visit my dad at work, I will be able to park in this specially designated spot:

Yup. We're expecting! A bun is in my oven! My eggo is preggo! There's a baby in my belly! I'm knocked up! However you want to say it! And we're so excited!

Our first baby is due October 15th but we're aiming for October 10th. How cool would it be to have a baby born on 10.10.10? The secret's out! Now I can really share what's been on my mind the past 12 weeks (or rather, 10 weeks, cuz they do weeks weird and give you two free ones in the beginning...).

We've had names picked out since before we were even talking about marriage: if it's a boy - Fox Thomas, and if it's a girl - London Catherine.

I've only thrown my guts up once, exactly one week ago, and it was right after I took my prenatal vitamin. I switched vitamins cuz throwing up is one of my biggest phobias. I'm so grateful I haven't been terribly sick. I'm nauseous like 24/7, but only had that one morning of actual sickness.

I've got plenty of stories and things I want to share, but I'll leave it at that. Hehe.

welcome!

I’m from Seattle. Chris is from Denver. We met at BYU and got married in 2007 in Nauvoo, IL. Chris graduated from the USC School of Dentistry in 2013 through an Army scholarship. We just returned from Grafenwöhr, Germany after being stationed there for 4 years and we LOVED traveling all around Europe! Now we're stationed at Ft. Lewis, Washington. I’m a stay-at-home-working-mom to our son Fox and daughter Jane. Scrapbooking is my passion and I have my own signature collections with Pink Paislee called FANCY FREE, TAKE ME AWAY, OH MY HEART, TURN THE PAGE, and PICK-ME-UP. I’m a teacher at Big Picture Classes, on the Scrapbook & Cards Today design team, I make and release 10 new Silhouette cut files every week, and I have an Etsy shop on the side. I love teaching in-person scrapbooking and bookbinding workshops whenever and wherever I can! Thanks for stopping by!
